سوئنگ کے سلطان وسیم اکرم نےکہا ہے کہ وہ ٹیم پر تنقید کرتے کرتے تھک گئے ہیں۔ سمجھ سے بالاتر ہے کہ پانچ بولرز کے ساتھ میدا ن میں جاتے وقت ٹاس جیت کر پہلے بیٹنگ کیوں نہیں کی؟ جب پانچ بولرز کے ساتھ جاتے ہیں تو اس کا مطلب ہے آپ ایک بیٹسمین کم کر رہے ہیں ۔

وسیم اکرم نے ورلڈ کپ میں پاکستان کرکٹ ٹیم کی ایک اور شکست پر مایوسی کا اظہار کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ بھارت کیخلاف میچ میں تخمیناتی اسکور260تک تھا، وہ لنکاشائر سے کھیلے ہیں لیکن کسی پاکستانی کھلاڑی نے میچ سے قبل ان سے مشورہ نہیں لیا ، اگر کوئی پوچھتا تو وہ ضرور بتاتے۔

انہوں نے مزید کہا کہ ورلڈ کپ کے دوران بس ایک بار شاہین شاہ آفریدی ان کے پاس آئے بات کرنے کیلئے۔

ٹورنامنٹ میں پاکستان کے مستقبل کے حوالےسے وسیم اکرم کا کہنا تھا کہ کسی کو مایوس نہیں کرنا چاہتا لیکن ورلڈ کپ میں پاکستان کا سفر کافی مشکل ہوگیا ہے۔ اب چار میچز جیت کر بھی معاملات اپنے ہاتھ میں نہیں اور ایسی صورتحال بہت گمبھیر ہوتی ہے جب آپ کو اپنے تمام میچز جیتنے ہوں اور دیگر ٹیموں کے رزلٹ پر بھی انحصار کرنا ہے۔

وسیم اکرم نے پاکستانی فیلڈرز پر بھی تنقیدکی ۔انہوں نے کہا کہ حاضر دماغی بہت ضروری ہے۔ فیلڈنگ میں جان لگانا پڑتی ہے۔ پاکستانی کھلاڑی کبھی دستانے پہن کر اور کبھی انرز پہن کر فیلڈنگ کی پریکٹس کرتے ہیں، ایسا اور کہاں ہوتا ہے؟ جب دستانے پہن کر پریکٹس کریں گے تو کنڈیشن میں ایڈجسٹ کیسے ہوں گے۔

Ye juwaari wahan mojud hai to ise maut parhti hai k wahan captain aur team management ko apni suggestions de? Khud kehta hai k Cricket committee kisi kaam ki nahi aur uska member bhi abhi tk khud ko rakha howa hai.

I will grant Sarfaraz the decision to chose bowl first because of special circumstance of rain and match being cut short.

But I wont grant him the decision to play all rounders instead of playing an additional specialist batsman or two. This is called brain in ankle decision making.

It was only Sarfaraz decision or team manager or coach involved to make the strategy about toss ?
I remember in WC once Waqar younis won the toss and elected to field first against the best best team Australia ?? and lost badly, everyone was saying that if Pakistan ?? won the toss would bat first even Rameez raja but waqar did other way around.

Pakistani batting lineup has a history of bending under pressure. Theres no justification for winning the toss and opting to bowl in such a high pressure match. He should have learned from the Australia match. The pattern of loss was similar.

No no no. Batting 1st is most important in England if there is a chance of rain. Because if u r chasing n rain comes in, that cloudy n moist condition in england helps bowlers to great extent

Thats for normal teams not for Pakistan ever since I've been watching them since the 80s they have never been able to chase well, and the square is covered and dry with these new hovercraft type covers and as Waseem said it might be an issue for the first few overs but then it will get flat.

Knowing your limitations is also a crucial. Just wishing on rainbows and unicorn farts doesn't work

Trying to chase in a team that cannot chase is one thing.

Trying to chase in a team that cant chase while not bringing 4-5 batsmen is even more stupidity.

Bro drop everything and watch the WI vs Bang match, this is how you chase. Pak team should watch this match and after watching commit suicide.
